Yuanshi felt his Great Dao being continuously eroded by [Finality] while he remained constrained by [Space-Time], and finally realized the severity of the problem.
This fellow possessed both the formidable combat strength of an Immortal Emperor and the Swarm's powerful adaptability!
As long as the first strike failed to truly erase him, the situation would only grow worse!
Yuanshi could clearly sense that his comprehension of the Great Dao far surpassed his opponent's, yet now he was the one being steadily worn down.
This gave him some understanding of just what those defeated Immortal Emperors had encountered!
Though Yuanshi began maneuvering around his opponent once he reacted, relying on his superior comprehension to avoid further erosion.
He knew full well that the current situation was extremely unfavorable to him. His opponent's adaptability would only grow stronger!
"Four fell back then, three were captured by the Swarm, and Finality went dormant. But several others were utterly defeated by the Swarm and fled. They would have little ability to resist the Swarm if they faced it again..."
A heaviness also settled over Yuanshi's Divine Soul.
After the Immortal-Insect War broke out, the Immortal Emperors gradually worked out the Swarm's characteristics. But by the time they understood, much of their information and data had already leaked, leaving them at a disadvantage on every front.
Many Immortal Emperors were defeated or even killed, and those who remained did their utmost to protect their own information.
And Yuanshi had protected his better than anyone!
That was also why he had been sent to investigate!
If anything unexpected really happened, he could erase it outright, then flee.
Yet who could have imagined that, despite all his care and caution, things would still go wrong!
Sizzle~
After another grinding collision between their Great Daos, their powers neutralized
